2006 Infiniti G35 Engine cooling Problems

“My 2006 Infiniti G35 consumes oil that nissan is aware about. The car doesn't burn oil or leak oil, but consumes around 1 quart of oil every 1800 miles. The manufacture recommends an oil change every 3,750 miles. I change my oil at 3000 miles and everytime I change my oil my car is always 3 quarts low. My car starts to make noises at start up and my low oil light comes on”

“Excessive oil consumption noted at 6,000 miles. Continued with 1,000 mile interval test for oil consumption and found 1qt low at 7,000 miles, 1.5 qts low at 8,000 miles, and 1 qt at 9000 miles. Infiniti said they ordered me a new engine. This was a 2.5 months ago and I'm at 12,500 miles. I've had to top off my engine with a 2 quarts of oil and my own service department does not call me back.”

“When my leased 06' G35 coupe hit around 6,000 miles it started making a rattling sound from under the hood. When I brought the car to the dealership to be checked on they advised me that my engine was consuming too much oil & that the engine would have to be replaced. They replaced the engine but than at around 7,000 miles the same noise came back. I have been to the dealership 4 times in the last 3 months and everytime I go back the car is 2-3 qrts oil low. …”

“2006 Infiniti G35 coupe 6-speed manual transmission 1- noticed the oil levels were too low before 3000mile. 2- engine's low oil levels would cause a noise in the engine and performance decreases, until additional oil was added. 3- I had to take the car into the dealer every 1000miles to monitor the loss of oil. (which was 1.5 to 2.5 quarts every 1000miles.) after 5 such check ups, Infiniti approved replacing my engine. Engine was replaced this week. (10-18-07).”

“I have an 06 Infiniti G35 coupe, and eversince I purchased it about 3 months ago, engine has a pinging/knocking problem because it is running lean. There is no modification done to the engine whatsoever.”
